Phantoms and Ability Damage

[Rosangela Blackwell]

I recently played a nasty higher level game of PFS, and both me and my phantom suffered both ability damage, and ability drain.

I was able to use PP to heal my drain, and my ability damage will heal naturally, but what does my phantom have to do to heal both its ability drain and ability damage?

Ability damage will go away on its own, but you must pay to have your drain removed.

Luckily, it's not a "condition" that must be cleared by Adventure's end, so you can wait until next game and hope another PC can aid you.

Flagged for the PFS Forum.

Or you can purchase a casting of Restoration. You only need the cheaper version.
Between games or anytime you are in a settlement of at least 5000 people you can purchase spellcasting. The cost is spell level X caster level X 10 + material component cost.

Resotoration is a 4th level cleric spell so 4 X 7 X 10 + 100 (cheaper material component version of the spell) =380 gold.

You can pay a cleric to get rid of all the drain from one score by paying them to cast Restoration for 380 gold. Not a big price at higher levels.

Conversely, as Nefreet says, you can wait till next session and see if there is a player playing a character who can cast restoration. In this case you will only need to pay for the material component (100g).
